Renew Our Rivers

Mississippi Power's Renew Our Rivers program is one of the state's premiere, national award-winning environmental stewardship programs. These efforts partner corporate, national, regional and community volunteers to help make and keep our waterways in Southeast Mississippi healthy.

Since it began in 2005, employee and community volunteers have removed more than 362 tons of debris from about 20 waterways. Through Renew Our Rivers, company volunteers have worked with nearly 40 corporate, community and governmental partners.
